[Verso 1]
F G
Oh I met her back in 2010 right there beside the pub.
Am
She was drinking some concoction she made from a pastic cup.
F G
She asked me would I hold her drink, while she fixed herself up,
Am
And I knew right then I had her and the road's all faced to love.
F G
But let me set the scene, right there in 2010.
Am
Before cocaine had a hold on us and we all went to bed,
F G
Oh young, wild and free, with her locks of golden hair,
Am
And the wind was cutting us in half and her eye's struggling to stare.
[Verso 2]
F G
She was a Diva, with the attitude to match,
Am
And I was a money-hungry laughing stock, who played with wads of cash.
F G
And I'll never keep her, because she wasn't a catch,
Am
And I wasn't going to let another girl in, just to distact.
[Refrão]
F G Am
'cause she was the devil, in disguise, and she loved smoking ganja,
F G
I could see it in her eyes, she wasn't clever, nor was I,
Am
But let's mix and make a cocktail and I'll stay at your's tonight.
[Verso 3]
F G
So we took a stroll down to her house, guided by street lights,
Am
Stopping off, just to change her shoes and get a re-supply.
F G
She handed him a fifty note, and then rolled right up a joint,
Am
And she took two pulls and looked around and then passed it to the side.
F G Am
We're walking on down the road, her hand locked in mine, two hopeless eejits
F
wondering with red watered eyes, stopping right off at her door,
G Am
To find the keys and go inside and then up the stairs to do the deed,
and my god, what a (ride).
[Ponte]
F G Am
She was the devil, I was right, and her love knows no bounds,
F G
When she's high as a kite, and she wasn't clever, nor was I,
Am
But we mixed and made a cocktail and I stayed at her's that night.
[Verso 4]
F G
Then we parted ways, but she's the Bonnie to my Clide.
Am
Do we call it love? Or call it off? Or what do you have in mind?
F G
And I dont know her name and this is passion mixed with lies,
Am
And we're sinking drugs and alcohol, and then hiding in disguise.
[Ponte]
F G Am
She was the devil, I was right, and her love knows no bounds,
F G
When she's high as a kite, and she wasn't clever, nor was I,
Am
But we mixed and made a cocktail and I stayed at her's that night.
[Verso 5]
F G Am
Oh she's the devil in disguise and I can see it in her eyes.
F
I think about her all the time, I think about her in the night.
G Am
Oh she's the devil I was right, her love knows no bounds, when she is high,
F G Am
And should I ask her to be mine? Or can I leave and still be fine?
F G Am
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh,
F G Am
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh Oh Oh,
[Refrão]
F G Am
'cause she was the devil, in disguise, and she loved smoking ganja,
F G
I could see it in her eyes, she wasn't clever, nor was I,
Am
But we mixed and made a cocktail and I stayed at her that tonight.
Outro
F G Am
She was the devil, she was mine. Until she moved on to the next man,
F G
And left me all behind, you gotta respect her, she's living her life.
Am
And someday she will settle down, and one day change her mind.
